The team plays its home games at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida.

Prior to 2021, the team was known as the Gulf Coast League Yankees, and fielded two squads in several seasons, differentiated by suffixes.

The team (or one of its two squads) has won the league championship 13 times, most recently in 2022.

In 2013, the Yankees began fielding two squads in the league, originally differentiated by "1" and "2" suffixes.

The suffixes were changed to "East" and "West" in 2016, as the squads played in the Northeast and Northwest division, respectively.
